The aim of my posting is to inform and advertise in order to obtain an
investigation of my allegations.
The submission of my site to known search engines is rejected therefore I
have to stick with Usenet.


This is a sad story about scientific misconduct in the Netherlands and 9
years of struggle for an honest and fair investigation of allegations of
scientific misconduct (still with no success). During this time period I,
and members of my family, had to endure police harassment, justice
accusations, and intimidation.

In 1987 I worked for Philips Research Laboratories in a semiconductor Group.
My starting salary as post-doc was 1000 $ monthly. I feel that this was
intellectual abuse, for the reason that my activities were limited to
investigations of unknown devices. (See Philips report). I got a minimum
information at the end of my stay to write down a report !!! Scientifically
speaking a report about my activities was nonsense. A French professor, who
introduced me there, got a copy of this report, and this was the beginning
of a nightmare in the Netherlands. I should pay for this including my family
members. The youngest of them were kicked out from their schools and the
adults from their jobs.
In 1988 I started another post-doc job for two years at University of Twente
to develop an integrated angle detector, and was paid 1200$ monthly. I
didn't know that after a year unemployment that this was a trick of Philips
researchers. The majority of the electrical faculty at this university were
ex-Philips workers and still depend on this Philips. During two years, I
have been subjected to harassment and work intimidatons (a computer for
wordprocessing was not available and a visit to a scientific congres was not
possible ) . For 1200$ monthly, the university had the intention of
exploiting me and to publish my work under someone else's name.
My project was defined as follows: The proposal is directed on the design of
a high quality angle detector, based on the magnetoresistive (magnetic field
induced anisotropy) effect in permalby in the composition NI(81)Fe(19). The
permalloy thin film device should be integrated on a silicon chip together
with a CM0S preamplifier. The critical steps in the total process should be
investigated and preliminary solutions must be obtained. In his work, i had
to work with three different groups : *Sensor research group, who developed
the angle detector and protected their research with a patent application
which means that i had to work for my own sensor and magneti parameters.
*Electronic group where my presence in their atelier was not tolerated, and
therefore I had to ask a third person to perform for me some of my
experiments. It was a way to control my activities. *Magnetic group were
Philips introduced a Japanese "dirty task manager". He got the job of
research fellow without possessing any scientific experience at his forty.
For an oxidation and SiON thin film deposition you need 2 a 4 hours, but the
people of electronic group have done it for me in one year. I was patient
and i didn't complain about this. But when they refused to inform me about
the experimental parameters of a classical oxidation and SiON thin film
deposition performed on wafers of my research, I discussed with them my
objections. Even the type of used machine to deposit SiON was not
accessible, later I found it in an US-patent.
Later, I understood that they used my research wafers to test their own
techniques to include the integrated angle detector in their own patent
claims. Their patent application was a result of my own research work.
-In May 1990, i complained to the faculty director that without my
knowledge, they treated my wafers with a NH3 plasma. My complaints were not
investigated among them work abuse complaints. The University administration
refused to investigate my case. -In 1991 i contacted the first lawyer who
claimed information about their illegal treatment of wafers of my research
and their publications. The university refused any cooperation and the
lawyer was unable to continue the case. A Philips researcher Dr.D.R Wolters,
ex-colleague, did contact the lawyer and maybe intimidate hem. -In 1993 and
later in 1994 I discovered for the first time their publication, patent
applications about a new method using NH3 plasma treatment of silicon wafer,
and an US-patent about PECVD machine. I contacted the second lawyer which
advised me to come with an expert report from an independent scientist. It
took me 2 more years to understand that I was alone in my efforts, and the
scientific community refused to assist me. A third lawyer refused to contact
a consultant to discuss the needed expert report. In all this period I
contacted scientists and scientific organizations in the Netherlands and
from many parts of the world. Even the Dutch academy of science refused to
assist me by providing an expert report about my case. A huge number of
lawyers has been contacted and they refused to help me giving the excuse
that a legal case against a university is not possible. They didn't even
mention Philips. In 1996, a new complaint of allegations of scientific fraud
by the university was ignored. The position of the university was that my
case was investigated by my superiors and Professor Popma. Popma was a
colleague and couldn't stand as independent investigator. Further I didn't
have any technical discussion with them about the matter. Even a national
consul found that the position of the university was right even that they
got a notification from the Dutch academy of science. In this notification,
the Dutch scientific community required investigation of all allegations of
scientific misconduct by an independent scientific commission.
Recently I got a document were Philips had attacked me personally by the
university administration. I am now waiting for a print out of an expert
report. I contacted the expert 3 years ago, and paid him 5 months ago after
his agreed to assist him.
I can justify my allegations by the fact that the university requested a
grant follow-up of my research and encouraged me to send a publication
abstract based on erroneous data. The problem is that the university refused
to investigate the case, neglecting the Dutch academy of science
notification about how to deal with allegations of scientific misconduct.
